Student

"I belong. When I first started middle school before coming to OACS, it felt very Clique-y and I didn’t feel well treated. Since coming here, I have felt like I am part of the group, and I’ve learned how to welcome others."

"I transferred to OACS because my dad wanted me to learn responsibility. I already considered myself pretty responsible, but what I did pick up here is the importance of being a leader, especially when it comes to standing up for the right thing."

"I love the environment of this school; it’s a small school. So the kids learn about God, how God treats people, and as a result how I see them treating each other now."

Caleb (Student)

Student

"They don’t waste my time here. When I finish my work in class and there’s extra time left, my teacher gives me extra things to do that. I enjoy and also I learned from. I can actually tell I am growing here."

Jennifer Irizarry (Teacher G2&G3)

Jennifer Irizarry

Teacher

"Of all the schools I’ve worked at, this has been the place where I have most seen collaboration between the teachers and the parents solely for the benefit of the students. I love the group I’m working with here, we really have each other‘s backs, and we help each other become better at our craft."

Kyron

Student

"My favorite part of the school is the teachers. Here I get to learn about Christ, but it isn’t as simple as a quick Bible story and they’re finished. They always go deep into the meaning of each story and why Jesus does what he does the way he does it."

Parent

"My older kids were in a different school, and I can see the difference with my child who goes here. I love that they teach about Jesus because they learn not only their academic skills, but also proper social skills. They show so much respect and care for other people."
